ADDRESS OF (sender) works for anything that isn't level 66 or 88. It
even works for reference modification:
SET MY-POINTER TO ADDRESS OF CHAR-FIELD(5:1)
While you're able to do limited pointer arithmetic with REDEFINES
COMP-5, be wary: there's no code portability here, and it's a hack.
When/if Tom gets around to implementing 64-bit support that'll bite you.
